Frankie Boyle in Twitter war with X Factor finalist James Arthur

FRANKIE BOYLE has become embroiled in another Twitter row, this time with X Factor finalist James Arthur. An angry exchange began when Boyle called Arthur "a cross between a tramp and a duckling". James hit back saying: "Poor old man making yet more s*** jokes about X Factor because he knows that's the only way he can get attention anymore." To which Boyle replied: "if I wanted attention I'd sing covers on a talent show." The Sun reports that Arthur later threatened to "f*** him [Boyle] up" and the comedian told Arthur to "get a sense of humour." Boyle also said Arthur's fellow X Factor finalist, Chris Maloney, looks "like the uncle who gets questioned when a child goes missing".
